Interesting premise and storytelling. Loved piecing together the story. Gameplay, music, puzzle design, etc. are VERY classic Cyan, other than the free movement, though I think this game is slightly easier than Myst. If you liked Cyan's earlier games, you'll like it.

Minor complaints:
It's easy to ring the doorbell, not wait long enough, and walk away, completely missing what the guy has to say, with absolutely no way of hearing it again other than restarting the game.
There's a lot of backtracking, especially in the maze puzzle, though the maze actually isn't too bad if you plan ahead properly. It probably sucks if you don't, though.
The twist in the last world is so laughably obvious, I thought it was a joke until the game actually required me to fall for it in order to progress.
The alien designs are pretty boring.

Also note that if you're playing it on Linux, use Proton GE. The videos don't work with default Proton and you will miss a lot of both lore and instructions.
